New build mastic for homes and businesses in Lurgashall

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. We work on kitchens, skirting & floors and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are cracks appearing as a new home settles and gaps behind new kitchen upstands.

Work in a small place like Lurgashall just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

How we quote for new build mastic

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The size of the job
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether the work is at height

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The type of property
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

How it works

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Lurgashall, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

When to call us in Lurgashall

Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. A bead disturbed before it has cured may never seal properly and it shows once the home is in use.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Second-fix sealing on new plots

In and around Lurgashall, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long to leave it before use
  • The length of the guarantee
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Whether they’re fully insured

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and commercial work in Lurgashall

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What we cannot put right

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it.

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.

Kitchens

Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
  • Wipe joints with warm soapy water
  • Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years

Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.

A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
